Having finally lost patience with Cortex's failures following his previous mishap with the Planetary Minimiser, Uka Uka decides this time to turn to Dr N. Tropy. The master of time already has a plan in the works, having enlisted N. Trance, the master of hypnotism from the fifth dimension. The duo abduct the three bandicoots and brainwash them to do their evil bidding. A misdirect with Tropy's vortex leads Crash to escape however, leaving him to fight and rescue his possessed friends...and another mysterious associate.
